Is it possible to establish a floating laminate floor on top of ceramic tile (particularly) if the pictures are soft?

I have been given some beautiful Italian ceramic tiles for a friend who has a new kitchen. The tiles are too beautiful to shoot, so I would like to reuse in my kitchen. The problem is, other than trying to chip off the adhesive, which can break the tiles, I was wondering if anyone knew otherwise might lose he. Thank you.

If it sa fine which may be white or gray in color, place the tile face down on a PC from old scrap mat or blanket and using a sander or grinder band carefully to remove the thinset. You may want to build a little framework to help keep the tile to move around if you use a belt sander. Do this outside and use a dust mask will be very dusty. You can do this if it is a mastic, but it'll clog the sand paper a little faster. Mastic is usually very thin and sometimes you can reuse these tiles. Any questions you can send an email via my avatar and check my grades there. GL

Description

The Universe talavera tile can be a perfect complement to decorate a bathroom shower wall, a kitchen backsplash, a fireplace, a stairway, or any other project you have in mind. Each of our Mexican talavera tile is unique and handcrafted. The hand made nature gives it a warm and rustic finish. The tiles are made from clay dug out of the ground and fired to a temperature at which the clay undergoes chemical changes and becomes permanently hard. Then the tile is glazed and decorated by hand, and fired once again to give it its final and lively finish. Its physical characteristics make Mexican tiles particularly attractive and distinctive. Characteristics of Mexican Talavera Tile: 1) All sizes are nominal.

This is particularly important in complex installations. 8) Lot variation in size and color may be present. 9) There is no guarantee that tiles ordered as add-ons will match those from the original orders. This is an inherent characteristic in all ceramic tiles, and particularly in all handcrafted tiles. 10) Talavera tiles are NOT frost proof.
